Comments Thread For: DiBella: Mayweather vs Martinez "Would Be Spectacular"

No. Floyd is an amazing fighter. All I'm saying is that ouside the ring he presents himself like someone who's elevator doesn't reach the top.

Doubt he's even close. You seem to have some strange dislike of him. Your pictures show that. Are you basing his whole personality on some of the looks he has in the ring? Come on...

Fighting a guy who 6 months earlier had looked pretty sharp at 150.


Who the hell you fooling.....he didnt look sharp against Steve Forbes.

[QUOTE=adp023;8264256]Even if Sergio Martinez BOWED DOWN to Floyd's every demand, Floyd would NOT take this fight!!!!

Werent you one of the many that said Floyd would never fight a real welter weight also?

Body language isn't everything. Don't just go by that. If you seen him get confused by a simple question(not trying to avoid it...), then maybe you have a point. I think the guy is pretty sharp, based on what I've seen of him. He isn't always the same, also...

[QUOTE=adp023;8264256] Let's not forget the trouble Floyd had with an old Oscar at 154!!!

Refresh my memory because he took more hard shots in the second round of last night's fight than he did in the entire DelaHoya fight.

Did Oscar not nearly beat him, only(possibly) failing because of stamina? Sergio is slicker, more powerful and faster. A very dangerous fight for Floyd, even though he may also have some of that stamina problem.

By seeing him on interviews you'll see Floyd repeating himself and saying things that my 6 year old nephew or George Bush would say. Floyds not the brightest tool in the shed, but in the ring he's sparkling!

He might not be the brightest, but I'd bet a small amount that he's not a complete fool. If you watch enough interviews, you'd see that he's not always the same.

This fight would be a mismatch at 160 and 154, but I can't say I wouldn't be interested in seeing it. I think it could get very entertaining in the press conferences. They both have egos and it could propel Martinez as a name and sell the fight, b/c he will talk trash. The fight however will not happen, but if it did, people have to realize if Martinez comes down in weight as a 35 year old natural middleweight it can easily turn into a mismatch the other way around, at 147.
